I always used to respect Barca but they have absolutely sold their soul in the past 5 years. Aubameyang is such a typical modern Barca signing. They went from Unicef on their shirt to Qatar Airways, went from not really ever spending big and preferring to promote youth splashing cash on aging players. Ever since they bought Suarez I feel like they've been different, then you've got a line of players who are just odd signings year on year. Turan, Paulinho, Coutinho, Dembele, Vidal, Griezmann, Braithwaite, Pjanic, Aguero, Depay, Torres and Aubameyang is the cherry on top.. It honestly seems like they're approaching football like it's FIFA, no real plan. Just big names and big wages to guys who don't deserve it, not a good idea when you're broke.

Other than a brief period when did barca not spend big on players? Their 3 best players are from the youth team.

They are a car crash of a club right now but I think your past veiws of them are from a very short period of time and even then they spent.

I agree they're just Madrid in different colour shirts. There was a period when they seemed to have a unique identity, La Masia, Tiki-Taka and a defined Barca style of player. Now they are just like any super-rich financially doped club.

Maybe it's since Cruyff passed, i have to think he would have been against many of the players and changes at the club over the last 5 years.

That identity was for a relatively short period of time, they were always big spenders and were after Beckham etc. Prior to that run.

I think they are great at branding more than anything.

This is a weird one, can only assume its a lengthy deal... Longer than others could offer.

Reminded me of this:

 

[To Dare Is To Do.]

United fans angry; but I respect what their board has done here actually. Overruled their own manager, and given up on 8 million, just to fuck over Newcastle (who hopefully will get relegated).

Barca are a mess bringing Aubameyang on board. Helps clear Woolwich's wage bill as well.
